Chicago - Guests who dine at any of the 33 Chicago area Applebee’s Neighborhood Grill & Bar locations on Wednesday November 16, 2011 will do more than just enjoy a delicious and filling meal. They’ll also be doing something fulfilling, because 15 percent of the profits from eligible dine-in meals sold at the restaurants that night will be donated to Make-A-Wish Foundation helping to raise funds for neighborhood children with wishes.
“The mission for Make-A-Wish Foundation is to grant the wishes of children with life threatening medical conditions to enrich the human spirit with hope, strength and joy. The personal and professional time, contacts and contributions the team at AppleSauceInc./AppleILLINOIS LLC so generously gives to the Make-A-Wish Foundation has indeed supported our mission of hope, strength and joy”, Susan McConnell, President and CEO Make-A-Wish Foundation.
To participate, guests simply need to print the flyer and bring it to any of the participating locations, (www.applesauceinc./locations). They can find this flyer at www.applesauceinc.com/press. The restaurants will make the donation as part of Applebee’s Dining to Donate program. Funds raised at the November 16, 2011 event will help to send neighborhood children on their wish.
“Applebee’s Dining to Donate program allows guests to give back simply by eating at the restaurant – something they probably do often already,” said Anna Ball, Regional Marketing Manager. “It’s an easy, practical way to help, and we’re pleased to partner with Make-A-Wish Foundation to raise funds for a cause that will benefit so many people in Applebee’s neighborhoods.”
